The relationship between bilingual experience and gyrification in adulthood: A cross-sectional surface-based morphometry study.

abstract：:We studied the relationship between naming and the integrity of physical and associative knowledge in a group of patients with dementia of the Alzheimer type (DAT) and matched normal controls. All subjects named 48 line drawings and later generated verbal definitions in response to the names of a subset of the 48 item...
